    Thanks you for your replies. Yeah now you've explained that, it all makes sense. I'll get the toxins sorted in the water, and then increase the Ph. On another note, we've found a more LFS who seem to be much more helpful, and whilst having a perfect chance to sell us all sorts on our last...

    Thanks for your help. We're going to get the water tested again over the weekend at our LFS. (we continue to keep doing our dip stick tests) The fish appear quite happy in the tank, but I am keeping a very close eye on them. Once we get our water sorted out they should be more than happy.

    we do have some tests, but are the dip stick kind, and don't seem to be accurate. After a 10% water change the fish all seem happier. We're going to invest in a decent, accurate test kit.

    We set up our tank several weeks/months ago, with a white sand substrate, but chose to replace it with gravel and have done so. During the process we re-located the tank into a more suitable position, and left it for the water to settle, for another week or two. Last friday, we visited our...
